The authors provide a wealth of data and statistics to support their arguments, including information on the cost of the purchase, the projected benefits of the reservoir, and the potential risks and drawbacks of the project.In addition to the factual information, the book also includes arguments for and against the purchase, presented by various stakeholders in the debate.
